J35 Bow pulpit plans

Recommended Posts

I don't have it anymore, does anyone have any plans for a pulpit? I have emailed J-yachts to no avail and before I go and start trying to get my own fabricated with the associated costs of measurements/it not fitting etc I thought i would ask if anyone had any plans if they have had theirs replaced etc?

Company in Port Huron MI makes them, They actually may have been the original supplier to TPI

I am on at least my third... Rubbing is racing!

My kind of helm! But I only take-out the bow light and leave the pulpit intact.

Couple of weeks ago on a reachy leg where a 105 was a touch faster I hooked into their stern wave and I warned the helm, who was driving on the low side, not to worry if he felt our spin pole tickle him in the back, just go a little faster.

Lost two the first 3 years I had her, only one since. Lack of main trimmer training on dipping procedures is the most frequent culprit LOL! The rudder becomes only a suggestion in those situations!

I have mine rebuilt by a local welder. I long fell out of one-design since I race in the South Pacific and Hookipa is the only J35 1000's of miles around. It will be shorter to allow a custom mini-sprit for an asym.
